Thought it would be fun to do a visual representation of each of the four main branches of my family tree as far as we have photos back, one for each generation.
So today I present the Hillingers:
Me and my sister as wedding attendants ca 1984
My Parents on their wedding day in 1969
Dad and his siblings as kids with Grumpy and Nana
Grumpy (Sam) and Nana (Maggie) in the late 40s
Dora and Alex with their first grandchild, my dad’s cousin, sometime in the late 40s
Sam with his whole family before they came to the US in the mid-thirties:
L-R: Back - Sam, Dora, Ben, Alex, Minna; Front: Helena, Selma (on Dora's lap), Hilda aka Peppi
Dora with her sister Minna in the late 19-teens
Fiege Golde Kresch (nee Riech), mother of Dora, around 1927
If I am correct, this would be Benzion Kresch, whom Grumpy's elder brother was named for
